GRANTS On motion made by Councilman W. H. Schrader, seconded by Councilman

Council was informed of options available regarding the Community
Development Block Grants as follows:
1. Planning Grant in the amount of $25,000 due 7/21/89 to plan for
a 1990 $1 million dollar neighborhood impact grant (Cool Springs) to
improve housing (51~), install 6,700 ft. of sewer, streets, drainage,
street lights and recreation.
2. Apply for a $300,000 sewer grant in the 1989 round to install
6,700 feet of sewer in Cool Springs. Submission would have to be made
by March 10, 1989. With this grant, we would not be eligible for a
planning grant or the neighborhood impact grant unless completed by
March, 1990.
3. Apply for a 1989 $700,000 housing grant with submission of
grant by March 10, 1989. With this grant also, we would not be eligible
for a 1990 planning grant or a neighborhood impact grant. We would need
to be 75$ complete by March, 1990 grant.
4. Apply for a grant to fund a water project in the Brookmont Road
area of Pulaski County. This would prohibit the Town from seeking a
planning grant in 1989, and this project would have to be 75$ completed
by March of 1990 for us to be eligible for another grant.
The projects that are being worked on by the Engineering Department
and Assistant Town Manager were reviewed. Staff recommended that we
apply for the $25,000 grant due to the scope of the current work load
and its relationship to the priorities already established for the Town.
Councilman W. H. Schrader made a motion that we apply for the
$25,000 planning grant, seconded by Councilman Neblett, and carried.
Councilman Neblett made
Session under 2.1-344 (A4),
a motion that Council qo into Executive
Economic Development Matter, seconded by
Councilman Neighbors and carried.
